I'm amazed at how much work people go through to get content.
If spending two minutes setting up an automatically recurring payment is too much work, then installing Firebug and searching for streams will feel like 24-hour slavery.
You're confusing the BBC with BBC Worldwide - the latter is the commercial arm of the BBC, which means if they want to sell DVDs, they can sell DVDs. Yes, the profits do go into the BBC itself, but if that keeps the licence fee down, then I'm all for it.
The tech may be used by the military, but that doesn't make NASA military. Would MS be considered military if the DoD used Windows CE in their fighter jets? (They wouldn't obviously, it's just an example)
It's more that there's a 'pre-green' phase that allows drivers to prepare to go. Sometimes, the lead vehicle starts moving before the green. This is OK so long as they don't cross the line until after the change to green.

Where is the real link to the final release of .Net 4.5.1 ???
Here. At a labour rate of $100/h, that would be a charge of $0.01.
USB A fails that test true, but all the USB B forms pass, as they all have a non-rectangular shape that people can detect by touch.
If you only want to watch one thing, why are you looking at Netflix?
True, but it's a cheap, simple and effective way ;)

Netflix wants to DRM the web
You misspelt 'MPAA and RIAA'.
What complete muppet designed USB, a frequent plug-unplug connector by nature, to have orientation?
Someone who wanted to make sure it was always plugged in the right way round?

(chrome is 32 bit, and java 1.7 is 64 only.)
Total bollocks. Here's 32-bit Java for:
Windows
Linux (tarball)
Linux (RPM)
Windows Phone is even worse with a baffling array of JScript, C++, C# and VB.NET
WP8 supports apps developed entirely in HTML5/JS.
Making a verb out of a noun made from the original meaning of the work fucking annoyhells me.
Verbing nouns and nouning verbs is how the language evolves ;)
You talking about the Books of John, Paul, George and Ringo? :P

I never knew NASA was a military organisation... oh, wait, it isn't.

Can I install my Microsoft Office 2007 on Windows RT?
That's like asking 'can I power my TV by rubbing a balloon on my sweatshirt'.
You first :P
VW is stained for 100 years with hipster, sorry to say.
Must be a US-only thing; in Europe, VWs are very popular, and are generally seen as fairly desirable, if a little bland.
Or to users of certain software. I use Right-Ctrl a lot in Visual Studio, and I'm sure there's a whole army of Emacs fans ready to add their two bits.
The diff splits power between wheels. There's still a step-down gear before that.
God didn't write the Bible - he outsourced it to India.
Teslas still have a 'final drive', so the gearbox isn't 100% gone.
Whoosh
As opposed to the YLOD fiasco at Sony?
That was blown out of all proportion by the media. The actual failure rates were about 0.5%, which is fairly normal for devices of that type.
Even the RROD was made out to be a lot worse than it actually was.
